Java Runtime Environment
If you are planning to use other applications that rely on JRE or JDK, always
install them first before you install WebPAM. WebPAM will use the existing JRE
rather than installing a second one.
WebPAM will install JRE 1.4 on your system unless you already have JRE or
JDK versions 1.3.0 or 1.4.
Operating System Support
On the Host PC where you install the FastTrak controller and WebPAM, Promise
Technology recommends:
• Windows 2000
• Windows XP Professional
• Windows 2003
• Red Hat EL 4.0
• SuSE ES 9.0
The Utility Server supports these operating systems. Choose one of them to take
full advantage of all the features of WebPAM.
